[Life of Brian]

Get a multimeter and you can answer these questions for yourself.

[mmoshkowich]

No multimeter , My mom wont let me buy anymore tools besides a dremel until I finish this portable

[Tibia]

Tell her you NEED it to finish this portable. It's going to be even more important than the Dremel once you start hooking things up and need to check connections.

I just had a good Idea that i will try in an hour or so. I will hook up 7.5v to the the end tip that madhacker said was positive. then i will hook up one line of the other 2 pins to ground and then bridge it to the unused pin. Before when I tried I hooked up 2 wires from ground and 1 wire from 7.5V. It didn't work . Right now I kinda have it like ghetto rigged. I found an adapter that would fit into it then I cut the wire and hooked up the positive to 7.5V and Negative to ground. So its kinda like this

Screen Mobo -- Ghetto Rigged Male Power Suply -- Retro Duo

I'm going to figure out how to get it like this

Screen Mobo -- Retro Duo

I will do it or Die trying

[mmoshkowich]

my bad I meant 5V I was typing out of my ass. I was Staring at my new LI-Po's.

[mmoshkowich]

[themadhacker]

cool, sorry I couldn't get the pics you asked for yet. do you still want them since you figured this out?

[mmoshkowich]

nope I don't need them anymore, if anybody needs the tutorial is a few threads down.

Can i see your wiring diagram for the PSOne screen im going to be using the Retro Duo board and there isnt any that i can see besides the one but it only shows the board

[bacteria]

You just take a 7.4v cell, wire it to a 7805 and feed that to your RetroDuo. That is what I did to get mine working to test it. The 7805 outputs 5.05v which is ideal.

[mmoshkowich]

yep that's right bacteria. Are you juggling 3 projects at once?
